Is anyone running 2 amps in their car? I'm just wondering if the battery and alternator can support it w/o any problems. The amp I'm running now is an Orion Xtreme amp (power ratings are 2 Ch x 93.75 Watts @ 4 Ohms
2 Ch x 187.5 Watts @ 2 Ohms, 1 Ch x 375 Watts @ 4 Ohms)

I want to add a Power Acoustic class D amp that puts out 450W rms at 4 ohms (800W rms at 2ohms).

What do you guys think? The car is a 97 GT.

Note: My hearts not dead set on getting the power acoustic amp, but I defineately want an additional amp if the car's electrical system has enough juice.

unless power acoustic is no longer crap, i'd say get a better amp. Orion is a quality product maybe look into a matching one. I ran 2 fosgate power series in my car with the stock amp for about 5 yrs. Now i have 2 JL amps but upgraded to a 200amp alternator.
